The hotel is well managed and conveniently located in the city with good amenities in the unit. The hotel is located up the hill from the CBD, so be prepared for some steps and ramps when walking. There are also some lifts as well. The hotel parking is easy and convenient, but it is limited so be sure to book it ahead of time to ensure a spot.

All in all, we really enjoyed our stay. The beds and furniture were very comfortable. We did not cook, but we could have easily made a full family meal if needed. A great location. Powerful showers. Besides a faulty power socket in the second bedroom, there were plenty of other sockets around the apartment. My only issue was that the apartment was advertised as having "Onsite parking available. Convenient and secure on-site parking, a rare amenity in the area". This led me to believe that assigned parking was included. This was not the case, and off-site parking was available to be reserved for an additional nightly fee. I found my own secure parking for a lower price a short walk away. My family and I would stay here again, but the parking situation needs to be made clearer.
